YOUTH// Lee Minho

"A retirement home? You want me to volunteer at a retirement home?"

"Yes, Minho. You said you needed more volunteer hours."

"I meant like... puppies. Not people who think rotary phones are still cutting edge."

Lee Minho has a five-year plan: be perfect, go to Princeton, and definitely not fall in love with the girl who's been outranking him since sophomore year.

But when that same girl, Dahlia Washington, aka his sworn academic rival, probably evil, kind of hot, turns out to be the volunteer coordinator at the retirement home he's forced into, things get complicated.

He expected passive-aggressive bingo nights.
He did not expect stolen hoodies, 2 a.m. ice cream, hospital escapes, or catching feelings like some tragic Wattpad protagonist.

Enemies to almost-kinda-maybe soulmates.
A rivalry fueled by sarcasm, jealousy, and a disturbing amount of eye contact.
One extremely judgmental cat.

And above all:
Lee Minho was not supposed to fall in love.
But then again-
Neither was she.
